Indeed it is!
I've mentioned this before, but it's going to be hard to go back to carbs after a car like this.
I'm not the only person who feels this way. A friend of mine was talking about this the other day. He's around 60 and is thinking of getting another "fun" car. He's a domestic guy and has been looking at muscle cars. Two things are changing his mind; one, there's
lots of junk coming out of the wood-works and two, does he really want to lean over into an engine bay every weekend fixing this or that prior to a drive? He's looking at Dodge Chargers and for around $30K, you get 400+HP and a warranty.
There's a lot to be said for modern engine management.
Another friend I was talking to feels the same way too.
The Mondial is just a blast to drive. It's butter smooth, has just the right amount of power for today's traffic and with the top down, it engages all of the senses.
I didn't have intentions of keeping this car long-term, but I've changed my mind. Unless prices really shoot up, I'm keeping it.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Is this actual Ferrari content on the Ferrari List?!
Your car looks terrific. How are you coping with a “modern” car now that you have had it for a while?

I hope everyone is out enjoying their cars at this time of year. I’ve always preferred Fall, mainly because of the color change and the cooler temperatures.
Up here in Canada, it’s our Thanksgiving holiday (Monday, Oct. 11th), so Happy Thanksgiving to those ‘List members (that means you Michael Savard!).
The weather has been off-and-on these last couple of days, but today was great. Not much variation in the color of our trees here on the West Coast (mostly yellows and oranges), but I was able to find a series of red maples down one of the streets in my neighborhood.
Matches the car quite nicely.
